[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really sucks for a friend that got deferred while the sister was hiding in a supply closet just last Saturday, and now this one has to write a bunch of new apps with all kinds of emotions going on in the house when they were even more than qualified- better stats than the older sib. It just feels especially cruel in all of this turmoil. [/quote]

It’s a sad situation, but it’s not like Admissions should change their decision or use this as a considering factor. [/quote]

I think deferral for one that would be a likely admit (was qualified) just to let other institutional priorities in for yield- yes- they should have increased ED admits given these awful circumstances and gone ahead with admittance.

Families are absolutely reeling and on edge right now. You can’t understand that trauma. They will need all of the support in the coming months and having a sib on campus helps. It’s why twins are given priority in regular years. [/quote]

So Brown owes these families sibling acceptances as some kind of reparation for what has happened?

No one is a likely admit unless an athlete or otherwise strongly hooked. Sorry, but this is coming across as very entitled. [/quote]
